OC MUSLIM WOMAN SETTLES HEAD SCARF LAWSUIT: SANTA ANA (AP) — An Orange County Muslim woman who was forced to remove her head scarf by jailers has settled a civil rights lawsuit.

City News Service says the settlement was announced Wednesday.

Souhair Khatib of Anaheim and her husband pleaded guilty in 2006 to a misdemeanor welfare fraud violation and were given community service.

When Khatib went to ask for an extension to complete the service, a judge ordered her jailed. She claimed jailers in a courthouse holding cell forced her to remove the religious scarf.

She sued in 2007 for religious discrimination.

The ACLU of Southern California says under the settlement, county officials will no longer require Muslim women in custody to remove their headscarves.

The Orange County Sheriff's Department says it's given its officers new training about the scarves.

MAN CONVICTED OF IMPREGNATING 11-YEAR-OLD RELATIVE: SANTA ANA, (AP) — A Southern California man is facing 78 years to life in prison for molesting a relative for nearly a decade and getting her pregnant when she was 11 years old.

An Orange County jury on Wednesday convicted 58-year-old Mariano Antonio Castro on six felony counts, including lewd acts with a child, aggravated assault of a child and continuous sexual abuse of a child.

He will be sentenced on April 26.

Prosecutors say Castro sexually assaulted the girl at his Santa Ana home from 2000 to 2008, starting when she was 8 years old. She gave birth to a girl when she was 12.

She kept the child and only reported the sex and pregnancy to police last year when she began attending a new church and confided in the pastor.
